Joe Biden Frustrated With Media for Telling the Truth: He's Losing It

It's unfair to state that Joe Biden is losing it. Why, you might ask, would anyone think that? Because it's more accurate to apply the past tense; Joe Biden has lost it, to the extent that he ever had it in the first place.

It's gotten to the point where even the leftist legacy media and other Democrats (but I repeat myself) can't ignore Joe Biden's ongoing deterioration any longer, and the President and his administration aren't very happy about it.

Months out from November’s high-stakes election, the White House and the Biden campaign are going public with growing frustration over how the president is being portrayed in the media. 

Biden’s camp is taking swings over press coverage of the incumbent as his reelection bid fends off persistent concerns about whether the 81-year-old is fit for another four years in the Oval Office. 

Democrats have been sensitive to media coverage of former President Donald Trump compared to their own candidates dating back to the 2016 campaign, when critics argued the press overhyped the controversy around then-Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s private email server while giving Trump significant, unfiltered airtime.

Notice how easily they slip in a barb about Her Imperial Majesty Hillary I's email server, which was a legitimate security violation that the legacy media largely ignored; but not even the most hidebound leftist media can ignore Joe Biden's failing any longer.

Now, some Biden allies see a similar pattern playing out where reporters fixate on the president’s periodic verbal slips and questions about his age while his likely November opponent faces dozens of felonies and suggests he would undermine international alliances, crackdown on immigrants and abortion access.

The president’s personal attorney this week penned an op-ed criticizing coverage of a special counsel report that commented on Biden’s recall, and The New York Times’ publisher said in a recent interview that the White House is “extremely upset” about reporting on Biden’s age.

“The more this campaign and the more this White House takes the gloves off and gets aggressive, the better off they are,” said Democratic strategist Jon Reinish.

That the White House is "extremely upset" is for sure and for certain, as even the outlets most committed to the regime are starting to realize they have to tell the obvious truth: That being that Joe Biden is failing, more and more, day by day, and that his presumed opponent, Donald Trump, seems to only be gaining momentum.

But that last bit of advice? "...the more this White House takes the gloves off and gets aggressive, the better off they are"? That's not good advice. Loathe as I am to advise the other side, that's precisely the wrong tack to take. We've all seen an angry, agitated Joe Biden, all too often of late. Unfounded anger is, after all, one of the primary signs of senile dementia. But the image of an enraged, gesticulating, saliva-spewing, incoherently shouting Joe Biden will not inspire confidence in many voters.

I've been saying for a while now that it's becoming more and more difficult for the Democrats to swap out old Joe for another candidate without creating huge rifts in their party. But it's also becoming more and more obvious that Joe isn't up to the task, and now even the legacy media can't overlook this fact any longer. Neither can the Democrat and independent voters whom Biden needs to win an increasingly unlikely re-election.
